Samantha Armytage hints at major career news
Samantha Armytage has hinted at a major change, following reports that the former Seven star has joined rival network Nine.
The former Farmer Wants a Wife host teased her new gig as she was being interviewed by The Daily Telegraph at The Everest in Sydney over the weekend.
Last week, it was reported that Armytage had signed a deal with Nine to host the Australian version of the dating show The Golden Bachelor in the coming year.
The publication also revealed that the deal is believed to be worth a significant amount, with insiders confirming the news to them.
When asked whether she had signed with Nine, the TV veteran remained coy, saying with a smile: "Look, watch this space. Exciting times ahead."
The news reportedly comes after months of negotiation between the TV star and her new network.
"There was a bit of back and forth, but I believe the contract has been signed" an insider told The Daily Telegraph last week.
The Golden Bachelor is a spin-off of The Bachelor series, but the contestants of the show are senior citizens instead.
"This is a smart move for Sam and Nine. She is well suited to this gig and breathed new life into Farmer Wants a Wife," the insider added.
Armytage announced her departure from Seven in August after 21 years with the network.
